It's become a wealth/status symbol for people who don't like the more traditional bougie shit. Lets them still delude themselves into thinking they're salt of the earth types.

I can afford for 2/3 of my vehicle to be functionally useless! Dohohohoho!

It's because they are actual luxury vehicles. Get inside one of the new ones, and it's basically what you would imagine a lexus or lincoln would be like. All the fanciness, all the nifty little features... Finding one that is actually made to 'work' is hard.

A wealth symbol you can finance for 84 months 🤣
